How she has been asked some burning questions on why she is saying this:

Before going into marriage, most men promise prospective wives heaven and earth. Were you sure your man will fulfill his promises? She answered : “Some men are better actors than most of us. A lot of them tell lies. Both of you have to sit down and discuss the issue. I’m not going to say I didn’t have issues in my relationships before getting married to my husband. I don’t think marriage is supposed to be frustrating. You should marry your friend, your partner and not just anybody that comes your way.

You should marry someone who knows you and knows what you want and will encourage you in whatever you want to do. But at the same time, because you are married, you need to cut down on some things. As for me, I put my marriage first before any other thing.”

Do you think women should empower themselves before marriage? “Of course! Any woman who goes into marriage without engaging in meaningful thing must be stupid. No matter how small, let the man see that you are hardworking.

It doesn’t make sense for any woman to sit in the house and just be bearing children all the time. You have to look for something to do to help the man. If a woman is working, there are certain things she doesn’t need to ask the man to provide for. It’s not enough to get married to a rich man.”
